I am looking for new tires for my Z. I am looking something to replace my current Factory tires as they are almost gone. I have the sport tires the 19 inch Rays.

I do not track this car, I drive from home to work over a mountain. I do drive aggressive sometimes mostly Fridays.

I have found these two sets I would like opinion on these tires and if you have any other brands let me know.

I am looking for something decent and not super expensive.

The tires I am looking at are

Falken
Falken Azenis FK453

and

Nitto
Nitto Invo

and

Hankook Ventus V12 Evo K110
have you searched for real tires?

Of those three options, I think you will be most happy with the Invos. Although I see you are in El Paso... not sure you need the wet weather performance. Consider the S-04 Pole Position. They should definitely be within your budget.

I wouldn't buy Falkens. Period.
I have driven a Z on those Hankooks at COTA. I was not impressed.
I have driven my Z with Invos at COTA. Much better.
